&gt; Does the function subplot clobber the current axes object? 

Yes, just as it is documented to do.

&gt;&gt; help subplot

    If a SUBPLOT specification causes a new axis to overlap an
    existing axis, the existing axis is deleted - unless the position
    of the new and existing axis are identical.  For example,
    the statement SUBPLOT(1,2,1) deletes all existing axes overlapping
    the left side of the Figure window and creates a new axis on that
    side - unless there is an axes there with a position that exactly
    matches the position of the new axes (and 'replace' was not specified),
    in which case all other overlapping axes will be deleted and the 
    matching axes will become the current axes.
